Man. City vs Liverpool: Salah and Sadio Mane made an instant impact as Liverpool came from behind to beat Premier League champions Manchester City 2-1 in their International Champions Cup friendly match on Wednesday.

"I am not concerned about what one of us said one day and the circumstances".

Mané stroked home Liverpool's victor from the penalty spot deep into stoppage time to give Jürgen Klopp's men a morale-boosting victory over an under-strength City team at the MetLife Stadium.

Klopp praised Mane's performance after coming on in the second half.

"[Salah] is fit, he trains completely normal and maybe he gets a few minutes tonight [against City] and we'll see that", Klopp said in an exclusive interview with ESPN FC.

"And I'm also happy to smile [about Klopp's previous comments] and to see that, you know, you can change your opinion and change as a person, it's amusing".

Meanwhile, Mane's pace and vision continue to make Liverpool one of the biggest PL threats, and his combination play with Salah is something of pure genius.

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola says that Leroy Sane is "far away from his best" ahead of the new Premier League campaign.

"The World Cup I can imagine was a challenge for him as well, not only from the sports side", Klopp said.

"I grew up and am a more mature guy". That is it. What other people say, I don't care. And if we win a game, that's cool.

The former Barcelona and Bayern Munich manager was speaking ahead of Wednesday's pre-season friendly against Liverpool in NY, following their 1-0 defeat to Borussia Dortmund on Saturday.

"With this, and then bringing in the fresh legs on 60 minutes, we chose to play football and that changed the game". We have three more years on the contract, but the results will dictate what will happen in the future. But we are going to adapt.

But there was also a serious message behind Mourinho's observations as he cranked up the pressure on Klopp to end Liverpool's trophy drought, suggesting their priority had to be to win the league title for the first time in 28 years.

United and Liverpool meet, on tour, this Saturday in what should be a fun clash.

Not sure who was more star struck, Craig or Salah? Mane wasted two golden chances in the final five minutes to wrap up the victory before sending Hart the wrong way from the spot.
